The Philips Fisio 620 is a lightweight, pocket-sized phone that is very comfortable to hold. It measures 104 x 46 x 20mm and weighs in at 85g. Enhancing the comfy feeling is a soft rubbery back case which Philips dubs “softskin”. It feels peculiar at first, even slippery, but does prevent the phone from sliding from your hands. If you’re not keen on the “softskin”, you can choose the silver-blue version instead.A groovy feature included on this mobile is a variable two-colour backlight. There are red and green backlights and you can choose a setting on a scale from one (green screen) to seven (red screen) with an amber colour in the middle. We found the green screen slightly brighter at night, but as red screen phones are not as common, we opted for the latter.
Two e-mail accounts can be set up on the phone with messages sent and received over your choice of GPRS or GSM. Attachments can also be viewed, providing they’re either plain text, 24bit encoded JPEG, or an attached e-mail. There is a note in the manual that if the e-mail is over 10Kb, it is rejected and the download is cancelled. There is a wireless application protocol (WAP) hotkey to open the WAP browser if those services appeal to you. A big plus is the durable battery life, which Philips boasts at a maximum of 330 hours of stand-by or 4.5 hours of talk time. We switched on the phone at 4pm Wednesday and with normal usage the phone lasted 102 hours, finally conking out at 10pm Sunday. It took only 40 minutes to fully recharge the battery.
